A judge had told Lohan that she would be sent to jail for the fourth time if she accepted a plea deal offered by prosecutors.

The judge said that if she changes her mind and wants to settle the necklace case out of court, her lawyer has until March 23 to notify him so "preparations" could be made with law authorities. If there is further evidence she would like to show the judge, she has until that date to do so as well.

If Lohan accepts a plea offer after all, she would then be ordered to appear in court on March 25 and plead either guilty or no contest to the grand theft charge.

Video footage that recently aired on the television show "Entertainment Tonight" showed Lohan texting on her phone, pacing and talking to a store clerk at the shore. She reportedly wore the necklace in question for about 25 minutes before a clerk escorted her out of the shop with a smile.
